0 Michael_C Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 You can edit the database but you'd then have to go through a lot of tables editing 2s to 1s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Bladerunner Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 If you haven't posted yet edit the ibf_members and the ibf_members converge table to change your user id. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 roosevelt Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Why do you even bother to change it? Isn't it kind of pointless to do it? Anyways if you change your user id in the ibf_members... then you also need to change other ids in the db of ibf_posts.. etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Erik@complexgfx Posted December 4, 2004 Author Share Posted December 4, 2004 is there a way to just remove member no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 KC Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 yeah but you will still be number two. edit/ Oh you want to remove member numbers completly? I don't think you can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Erik@complexgfx Posted December 5, 2004 Author Share Posted December 5, 2004 im sure u can.. its just a code Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Rupert Posted December 5, 2004 Share Posted December 5, 2004 Is it really worth it. I run a forum, I'm member numer 2. It doesnt bother me. But of course I have a root admin account and another admin account which I post with. Could it be that you are using the real second account. If you really wanted to change it i think theres something in database, but i dont think its worth the effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Michael_C Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 im sure u can.. its just a code 585042507[/snapback] Do you mean remove the bit that says Member No.: 2 in your profile or remove member numbers completly? The former is opssible, you just need to edit the skin templates but the latter is impossible because without it the forums would not work.

0 Swiftie Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Why not just reinstall the forum if being member # 2 is a bother..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Kasandoro Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 If I recall correctly, as long as their is an Administrator (or equivalent) account created when the board is installed, you'll always be #2. --Kas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Vignesh Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Why not just reinstall the forum if being member # 2 is a bother..... 585053412[/snapback] My point aswell :D . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 HolyRelic Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 I'm user # 1 on my forums, however, if you want to remove the member number from the post entry simply do the following. Admin CP -> Skins & Templates -> Skin Manager -> The skin you want to edit -> Topic View -> RenderRow -> Remove the following: $author['member_number'] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DannyGlass Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Or you could just go and edit it your member id in the sql which is very simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 forster Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Anybody else appear in the member list? Strange - is guest the first account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
